Newly promoted Sassuolo have completed the signing of Italian defender Francesco Acerbi in a co-ownership deal.
The 25-year-old joins the Neroverde from Genoa in a deal that is reportedly worth €3.5 million.
Acerbi only made 17 league appearances last season, splitting time between AC Milan and Chievo. He also appeared in two matches for the Rossoneri during their Champions League campaign.
The defender saw half his rights bought by Milan at the beginning of the 2012/13 for €4m but failed to impress for the Italian giants.
As a result, the Rossoneri sold their share in the player to Genoa as part of the deal that saw 50% of Kevin Constant sold to the Rossoneri before being loaned out to the Flying Donkeys.
